I’ve never wanted so badly to simultaneously sleep and read. Each recommendation is an intriguing option; I love how you describe the books. Also, I admire that in your busy life you still find / make time to read and explore new literature. 📚

"I usually read all the books I buy" I wish I could relate to that! My bookshelf is a morgue 😭

I feel you! I work in a book store so I get a small discount. Literally after almost every shift I come home with a book which means I have a huge pile on my bedside table of books I need to read it’s so bad (but so good ughh)

I absolutely love your book videos Mauve! Especially the soft tapping on the book covers, it’s my absolute favourite trigger 😌

You're going to enjoy The Left Hand of Darkness so much. Every time I re-read it, the story haunts me for months afterwards. Le Guin was so before her time. Total genius 📚📚

The first time I read it, I was not into it for the first half of the book. But by the end I was sobbing and couldn't forget about it. What a book!

Mauve ASMR is so underrated she deserves much more attention and fame.

Ur book videos are the base of my hierarchy of needs

So excited for this - absolutely love your book recommendations!

I love it when you do book related videos :) I will be adding some of these to my goodreads!

Been using my Kindle app for years, but this made me crave buying books again!

You inspire me to pick up a book. Sometimes I need to br reminded of how much I love to read

I was looking around for some relax before sleeping. And there you are! Thank you, I'm blessed 😌😌😌

Yes yes yes!! Looking to buy a new book this week ready to watch this 📚🥰💗

Your book recommendation videos are my absolute favorite 😻

I really loved Milkman. I ended up reading it in conjunction with a nonfiction book called Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland that recounts the story of many IRA members and leaders. Highly recommend!

I'm living for the sound of your fingers and nails on book cover xx

Too many books? No! If anything it is a business expense necessary for you to make these videos for us! 💛💛

The Celtic Tiger was a phenomenon in the Republic of Ireland, and yeah it was several years of a really booming economy, that ended in 2008. The Celtic Tiger never touched Northern Ireland, which is the bit that experienced the Troubles. You have to do a video pronouncing Irish names :) The meanings of the girls names in particular are often really beautiful.

The Wild Laughter's author's name can be pronounced a few different ways, which is the norm for irish names as there are three distinct dialects of Irish. The author herself pronounces is Key-Lin (keylinn, not kEY-linn) though other people could say Kay-linn or i would have thought it was Qway-lin like Caoimhe (Qwee-vah) but with a slight glottal stop on the C. Sorry this is so long an explanation I'm just very passionate about irish names :D good woman yerself for givin it a go!

I think this is your best video so far. Getting better with age!

Technically (Hi! I'm THAT GUY! :) ) a 'novel' starts at 40,000 words, so it's possible it's just a really short novel. Novellas typically run 10,000 to 40,000. (Novelettes are shorter, then short stories, then flash fiction, then drabbles, going down in size each time.)

"Caoilinn" is pronounced "Keelin", and the author of "A Ghost In The Throat" is Doireann Ní Ghríofa, which is pronounced more or less like "Dorin Nee Greefa". Just for future reference if you do another book video :)

Had to google Milkman to see if if was about the same Troubles I was thinking of and was surprised to discover it was. I don't think I've ever heard someone from the US refer to it so casually, like you knew people would know what you meant, if that makes sense? That statement probably sounds super ignorant, but it's really hard to know how well-known certain things are in other countries when you've grown up with them. I'm lucky enough to have missed the conflict (though the Good Friday Agreement was only signed several years after I was born which is wack), but the effects are still so apparent, especially up the North. Sorry for the rambly comment, it's just really unusual to hear non-Irish people mention the Troubles 😅

Oh also, Caoilinn is pronounced Kwee-lin or Kway-lin or sometimes Kee-lin depending on dialect, and the period of the Celtic Tiger ended in 2007/2008 leading to a big ol' recession 🐯

Yeah the Troubles aren't studied in the US and thus not really known by those who weren't alive when it was going on, which is part of the reason I'm always eager to learn more about it!
